Commonware chains on Celestia are now possible. Launching a Commonware chain on Celestia gets you 10x faster blocks without the infrastructure overhead and the launch delays of having to recruit a validator set. Check out coro, a data availability library with a minimalWe’ve built coro, a crate that lets developers build rollups using the commonware library in a day, allowing them to achieve: 20ms block times (a 10x speedup compared to alto with simplex) without the infrastructure overhead from expensive / bulky validator sets
00:00- 100M+ transactions, $20B+ in volume, 85+ chains @RelayProtocol scaled their crosschain payments product to massive adoption, then built their own chain on Celestia to settle it all at ~$0.005 per order. A case study in product-first chain design:
- 800K+ collectors, 8M+ NFTs from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and more are processed by @veve_official, an application on top of @CollectChain, built using the Evolve (@ev_stack) SDK and using Celestia for blockspace. @CollectChain is a purpose-built chain for licensed digital
- Celestia's engineering roadmap is compressing. V8 (including Hibiscus) is live on Mocha, with Mainnet following next, bringing single-signature cross-chain transfers and ZK-verified messaging to networks built on Celestia. The following protocol upgrade after V8 will bring
- We just wrapped up our team on-site. The entire Celestia team came together for a week of deep work on protocol and strategy. We are energised, heads down and building towards making Celestia’s Vision 2.0 a reality. We want to be better at sharing our work openly as it happens.

- On a 100 validator network, separating compute from blockspace saves ~$492,000/year in infrastructure costs alone, and that's before counting the engineering time you get back. @viet_nguyen breaks down the full math on why bundled validator architecture breaks at scale:
- Replying to @celestiaZK Interchain Security Module: Previously, cross-chain message verification relied on trusted multisig validators. ZK ISM replaces that with Groth16 cryptographic proofs, giving high-value applications a trust-minimised alternative for verifying messages across chains.Together, these two features make networks building on Celestia feel more unified, without sacrificing the sovereignty that empowers them to build with purpose and simplicity.
